[quote name='OldGit' post='317399' date='Oct 29 2008, 11:11 AM']So this famous Eurovision winning outfit now does the national chicken curcuit, two women, two men, one playing a Str@t.
They only have 2 hits (or maybe three) so they do 20 minutes versions of each with a dub section and long, long guitar solos, drum solos, bass solos, harmonica solos .. and - Ok I'm lying ...
They only have 2 or 3 hits so they do a "60's show" and a "70's show" to fill out the time.
All to backing tracks.
Their vocals are pretty good and the show is pretty good in a slick, dead eyed, lifeless, caberet "doing this 5 nights a week" kind of way.
So it gets to the 60's show bit and they do Johnnie b Good - with the guitar intro ... the guy on stage does all the moves and off they go into the rock and roll section.
The Sound man showed us his instructions "during Johnny B Goode intro turn the (real) guitar off" yup the intro was on the backing tape ...
